Background:Rainer Ortwin was born in Helman to wealthy parents who owned a mining operation that specialized in the countries most prized possession: Adamantine. He went to some of the best schools in the area (what few schools there are in Helman) and learned all that there was to know about structures and engineering. He then began applying his exceptional knowledge to aiding in his family's mining operation by working on a side project then called Exosuit. Unfortunately even after months of forethought, his device was not safe for human testing (it had a tendency to spin the top half in a way that would snap the operators spine). However, while Rainer was working on another project (this one would later be developed into what he called the Lightning Blast) an arc of electricity with just a little more magic than he knew how to handle resulted in automating his suit in a way he didn't expect. He later discovered that it had to do with the blacksteel and adamantine components used in some of the key controls. He began by using his new device to help with the mining, both by having it carry supplies around inside the mine and as a miner itself. He cared deeply for his father, who spent a lot of time encouraging his son's projects.

Unfortunately, war called and his family, as always, was requested to give their efforts in supplying adamantine weapons and armor to the front lines. Rainer signed up at the first chance to test some of his inventions in live fire scenarios, and truly enjoyed the beginning of the war. The heads of his squad then decided that they had trained enough and were claimed that they needed his platoon's resources on the eastern front soon so as to strike during one of the enemies holidays to catch them off guard. Rainer agreed with the strategy and loaded up his creation with all the weapons and armor he could and headed out, using the Clockwork tank’s speed to cross the country faster than any horse, and with a lot of weapons and armor. Shortly after he arrived at the Battle of The O, he began distributing his materials to the soldiers and providing a few small kindnesses to the POW’s and slaves (extra water rations and the like). However, the battle was not going in their favor, despite the resources that he had provided. Pretty soon word was going around that he had provided faulty equipment and that's why their soldiers were dying. That’s when he got the message. A friend from his home managed to get a sending spell to him that said the following: “Father accused Treason. Coming for you. RUN.” Already demoralized and having considered leaving, he immediately gathered a few scraps of adamantine and darksteel that he had prepared, climbed into his machine, had it grab its weapon and made his escape into enemy territory. While traveling Leazus in disguise, he decided to make some money as a wandering arms and armor dealer, making repairs on weapons and traveling with people around the country. He did his best to learn the customs of the land and blend in as well as a man with a mechanical construct could. After a year of traveling Leazus, he made his way to FCA lands, and eventually to Custom where he settled down for a little over a year as an armorer and weaponsmith, as well as a student at some of the technological centers of the city.He had managed to keep contact with his family’s friend about once a month up until then with news of the accusations against his father, when one day he got another message claiming that bounty hunters were after him again after they heard of a mechanical golem in Custom. That night he said his goodbyes to his professors, and finished the last of his orders and left for Toushin Toshi to gather some more information on Helman, leaving behind a rumor that he was heading for Zeth and eventually Kalar Forest and The Great Desert to research materials found in those two regions. He left the town and headed towards Zeth for 2 days at a normal pace, before looping around and staying a 2 day’s journey away from Toushin Toshi, avoiding any travelers he saw. On his way to Japan, he sent his clockwork creature to travel under the water near the bridge while he traversed it on foot. They met up on the other side without incident. He has been traveling the country since. (About 3 months)

Relations:Helpful with Mikawa Rebels, due to help rendered with equipment and logistics. However, Rainer has gained some reputation for being eccentric and experimental, rather than accepting the veterans' tried-and-true methods.

Traits: Perfected for Use: You receive a +1 trait bonus to attack when using a masterwork weapon you made yourself, and reduce the armor check penalty of masterwork armor you made yourself by an additional 1. (special: this also applies to your clockwork companion when using weapons you made)

Titles:Architect: When taking an active Perception check (normally a move action) to detect or examine any structure or passage, such as identifying the entry to a secret passage or looking for structural weaknesses to take advantage of, you may activate this title to either receive a +8 bonus on both the Perception and Knowledge[Engineering] check, or to perform it as a free action. This bonus does not stack with those of hero points.

Inventor: Upon activating this title, you may use a known invention you have attempted before without using a hero point.

Inventions:Remote Start Turret: You may create a turret ahead of time, that does not begin timing out or acting until a Swift action is used to remotely trigger its activation. This action can activate as many (or few) of the turrets as desired. You must have tool in Turret mode and be in range to give turret commands. Unactivated turrets last until AP is refreshed at each day.

DM request: Ability to chose Create Water and Know Direction as basic functions even though they are not on Sorc/Wiz listAlso: Even though Drill is Piercing, does it still do reduced damage to objects?Maybe Drill does full damage to items above a certain size? (maybe tower shield size)Finally: does Large size still increase my reach? now using natural weapon and a quadrupedal base form (but still have arms)

-- Yeah I'm fine with those spells, although i'm not sure you really need Know Direction (just get a compass and Survival ranks xD). Create Water though is always handy.-- Mmmh, makes sense. I'll specifically give the trait full sunder dmg on the description.-- Yes. You should have 10ft reach with the drill, I think.
